Clamato is sold in the US. I have seen it before, just never had any interest in buying it. and 2. No matter what you do to that cocktail there is no way I wont gag if it contains clam/tomato juice. Smile! Cheers!<br />Oh PS- #3 I did have some beers i Canada and they were excellent. I love good beer and you certainly had just that.Sharlenehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08539955929237988325noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5104402802168136031.post-3977082377814424642009-09-18T15:24:37.792-07:002009-09-18T15:24:37.792-07:00Read your trip blog, and wanted to say just a few ...Read your trip blog, and wanted to say just a few things:<br /><br />1) I work at Heritage Park, and it is one of the best work experiences I have ever had. This place is a delight to work at for all the reasons you stated, plus volumes more. I am so glad you came and I do hope you will come back with your kids on another trip when they are older. You should take a trip on our true paddlewheeler.<br /><br />2) At the height of summer (around solstace), it starts to get light around 4 am and the sun sets after ten. This is due to the tilting of the earth. In winter, it gets light at 8 and dark at 4, so go figure. This effect increases the further north you go - hence why the arctic is called &quot;the land of the midnight sun&quot;. If you live on the equator, it gets light around 6am and dark around 6pm every day of the year. I&#39;ll take the variation for long summer days - thank-you.<br /><br />3) Clamato is only sold in Canada, and it is the key to making a &quot;Ceasar&quot;, which like the &quot;B-52&quot; was invented in Calgary. The Ceasar is like a Bloody Mary, except you use Clamato instead of tomato juice. Judging from your picture - your drink was missing some key ingredients like Ice, seasoning salt on the rim, and a celery stalk. It may sound gross, but it is actually one of the finest cocktails you will ever have if prepared right. It isn&#39;t really the official or unoffical drink of Canada, as we pride ourselves on our superior beer. It IS, however, the official drink of Canadian hangovers!<br /><br />Thanks for visiting and shariung your adventures!<br /><br />AlanAlanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09807536023972811088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5104402802168136031.post-50110783062202325082009-09-16T13:17:34.770-07:002009-09-16T13:17:34.770-07:00Great pictures!!Great pictures!!Together We Savehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17294423259234525733noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5104402802168136031.post-20997706803179122562009-09-12T18:51:54.366-07:002009-09-12T18:51:54.366-07:00I love hearing about your Canadian adventures. lo...I love hearing about your Canadian adventures. lol. I love how you added the cold comment ... glad your car was fine!<br /><br />When does it turn dark where you live? In the summer it gets dark at about 10 here. In the winter, around 4:30.<br /><br />First of all, Clamato is gross. I am a Canadian, and have never had it, but that sounds sick. I have never actually tried Absinthe. Now I want to. :)Alishahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00774816386867888752noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5104402802168136031.post-63150751533586124722009-09-09T22:36:11.277-07:002009-09-09T22:36:11.277-07:00Wow, it really stayed light until 10:30 at night??...Wow, it really stayed light until 10:30 at night??
